Sweetest Chocolate Bar Ever



Yes, I cast the mold myself. Yes, I melted the chocolate myself. Yes, I'm pretty proud of myself.

Han Solo trapped in Carbonite. Coming soon to an eBay auction near you (assuming, of course, that I can ship the chocolate without it melting).

Google News Photo Editor should be fired.

Here's a photo/headline combo that Google News selected today.

Seriously?

Seriously. How does that happen? Does my Google News front page just pick key words out of the headline and use its own search engine's "I'm feeling lucky" button to find the "right" picture?

You'd think that the words "women" and "breastfeed" in the headline would have quickly eliminated this photo from the running.

Poor word choice part II

I was working at my desk, with the TV running, and I heard a commercial that I thought had to be a parody. AciPhex. Just say it out loud. Maybe it looks like it's a solution for your acid reflux or some other ailment, but it sounds like you've hired Industrial Light & Magic for your backside. Or perhaps you finally bought that Caboostier you've always wanted.

I'm asking "Who let this one through?"
